like most in this country I am following the inauguration events on the telly; I think it is absolutely amazing how one person's dream can ultimately affect how society today. Thinking upon it, if it hadn't been for MLK, Mother Teresa, etc many facets of our society would not be so right now; I am so eternally thankful for those who are fearless who despite what society has taught them or tried to make them believe they continued to believe in themselves and have faith. Having a Mum who was Native American she herself was often told she couldn't do anything of importance and to this day people tell me the same because of my culture, I speak a different language so yes we still have these negative connotations in society but never give up. If one thing I learned from my Mum was to dream big and always have faith...believe. So, on this day I am so eternally grateful for those who contributed to make society better ultimately, I think we still have some ways to go but just imagine how it would be if no one in the past tried? So happy birthday to one of the men who inspires me to continue on and continue to dream despite what society says; also grateful for President Obama...thank you for inspiring so many and making society better for my generation and the next.
